Uganda is a great destination to view a combination of forest and savannah wildlife. Top attractions include gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable or Mgahinga Gorilla National Parks, and chimp trekking in Kibale National Park and other forest locations. Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks offer wonderful savannah safaris with good wildlife viewing, with four of the Big Five present (no rhino), as does the more remote Kidepo Valley National Park. To stand a chance of seeing all the Big Five, visit Ziwa Rhino and Wildlife Ranch to track rhinos.
